Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Participants will learn something at the author's presentation. Participants will enjoy exposure to an author. Participants will want to read books written by the author.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Mr. Odell held the audience’s attention completely and many stayed around to speak with him after the presentation while he autographed books. Many attendees made the effort to specifically tell me how much they had enjoyed the program. Many people commented on how much they enjoyed the program and those who hadn’t yet read Odell’s books purchased copies or talked about getting them at the library.
